Wow, I just watched the game between the Thunder and Nuggets, and honestly Nikola Jokic almost caused chaos in Oklahoma. Basically, Dort tripped him intentionally, the Serbian player fell and got up furious. That’s where it all started – shoves, shouting, the typical on-court brawl. Dort was ejected for a flagrant foul type 2, and Jokic received a technical foul, but the interesting part is that the entire Oklahoma crowd booed him every time he touched the ball afterward.



The strange thing was that he had already had some clashes with Gilgeous-Alexander, who was returning from injury. That guy scored 36 points in 34 minutes but missed the overtime. Nikola Jokic finished with a triple-double of 23, 17, and 14, but the Thunder dominated in overtime 20-14. Holmgren was outstanding with 13 points and 20 rebounds.

Outside of the fight, the Thunder remain unstoppable as Western Conference leaders with a 46-15 record. Jokic defended his reaction, saying it was necessary due to Dort’s unnecessary action. The tension on that court was at its peak, honestly. What do you think, was the ejection excessive or did Jokic overreact?
